Patient stories

Hear it from the people who've lived it.

Real patients and the providers who cared for them, in their own words. New stories added as they come in.

Provider

Marnie, NP

"I was his voice. I was his anchor."

When a patient had no one else in his corner, frequent contact meant Marnie could tell he was in pain without him having to say so — and stayed with him through the end of his life.

Provider & Patient

Alyssa, NP & Amy

"They come in the room, and it's five minutes with me, and then they've got to just go. With her, she takes the time to listen."

Seeing Amy frequently enough to know her baseline let Alyssa catch a dangerous antibiotic cross-reaction before it became an emergency.

Provider & Patient

Brooke, NP & Marissa

"You really develop a transformational relationship with the person."

A decade in a wheelchair, a hard conversation about amputation, and a specialist referral that stuck — Marissa ran for the first time in 20 years the week this was filmed.

Provider & Patient

Eliza, NP & Dori

"It's like having a best friend as a doctor, truthfully."

When Dori's labs wouldn't get scheduled anywhere else, Eliza arranged mobile bloodwork — leading to a rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis and a relationship that didn't require starting over each visit.

Provider & Patient

Kaylin, NP & Russ

"It's really impactful for both the patients and the providers, equally."

Russ came home from the ICU scared, on oxygen, using a walker. A year of weekly visits later, he's back to golfing and bowling.
